Two Announcements

July 26, 2009

It is with sadness that I announce that Robey can no longer father puppies. After three unsuccessful breedings last Fall and this Spring I started to become suspicious as to there being something wrong. We ran some tests and discovered that he has become completely infertile. Most probably from the stress and illness of him getting a twisted stomach last Summer.

Robey has always been a gentle and kind father to his puppies.

Helping to rear them with love.

Always patient.

Although Robey will no longer be a true father to the puppies that will come here, he will still be the stand in daddy to them. :) Loving and gently helping to rear them and bring them up to be the best puppies that could be!

It is sad that he can no longer produce sons and daughters that are a part of him with his kindness, beauty, and gentle character. But Robey is still Robey. He is as healthy and hearty as ever! Still the greatest dog I know. He gives me joy and shows me what true love is EVERY day! :)

My other announcement is much more of a happy kind. :)

Vreni has been bred to a very high quality stud that I am SUPER excited about! I don’t know as of yet if she is pregnant, but I am hopeful. :) She would be due the first week of September, Lord willing.

Tim is the stud from Vom Haus Miller German Shepherds (http://www.vomhausmiller.com/Tim.htm). I am very impressed with this guy’s pedigree, titles, personality, looks, and the all around dog that he is. He is a big guy weighing in at a lean 95 pounds! Deep black and red with a gorgeous and expressive head! Gave me tingles up and down my spine when I first saw him. He has much presence…….very impressive! Upon meeting him I was instantly struck with his gentleness and kindness as a dog.

Sorry to hear about Robey. But as you said, he still is a great dog. I was really hoping to get another one of his puppies with Vreni, cause I love Robey Jr. But I may be interested in her next litter.

Thanks for the updates, Ava! I’ll check back often to get Vreni’s status. I’m hopeful, too!

I, too, agree that Robey will take the pups as his own. It seems evident from your pictures. I love the “daddy” shots of Robey, especially the “Always Patient” pic. It captures the essence of patience! Very sweet, indeed :)
